Context — Israel to Be Restored
26They will forget their disgrace and all the treachery they committed against Me, when they dwell securely in their land, with no one to frighten them.
27When I bring them back from the peoples and gather them out of the lands of their enemies, I will show My holiness in them in the sight of many nations.
28Then they will know that I am the LORD their God, when I regather them to their own land, not leaving any of them behind after their exile among the nations.

When God regathers His people, He will leave no one behind, showing His love and care for each individual, just like a good shepherd, as Jesus taught in John 10:11-18. This verse reminds us that God is a faithful and loving God who keeps His promises, as written in Jeremiah 31:3, and we can trust Him to do the same for us today.

Jamieson-Fausset-Brown on Ezekiel 39:28
Then shall they know that I am the LORD their God, which caused them to be led into captivity among the heathen: but I have gathered them unto their own land, and have left none of them any more there.
Matthew Poole's Commentary on Ezekiel 39:28
Know; on fullest experiences, and clearest evidences, see, acknowledge, and publish to each other. The Lord; the Mighty One, the just Judge, who determineth righteously between men and men, yea, between them and himself. Their God; who, in covenant with their fathers, hath remembered it for the good of their children, who did assure them, that if they violated his covenant he would punish, and when they repented he would show mercy. Which caused; who by his own hand raised up enemies against, and then delivered them into the enemies’ hand, so sent them into a sad and long captivity. But I have gathered them; but now done more for them than when I brought them out of Babylon? whence the two tribes (yet not all of them, for some staid behind) and a few of the house of Israel returned; now the whole of the twelve tribes shall be gathered. Unto their own land; that country they so dearly loved, somewhat for their fathers’ sake, whose ancient seat it was, but more for the goodness of it, which flowed with milk and honey. Have left none: this recovery it seems shall be much more universal than the former in Zorobabel’ s time: as, coining out of Egypt, not a feeble person left behind; so nor here, if the words be to be literally explained. There; in the land of captivity, the enemies’ country.
Trapp's Commentary on Ezekiel 39:28
Ezekiel 39:28 Then shall they know that I [am] the LORD their God, which caused them to be led into captivity among the heathen: but I have gathered them unto their own land, and have left none of them any more there.Ver. 28. And have left none of them any more there.] Here the Jews triumph and say, When was this promise ever fulfilled? and how, then, can the Messiah be come already? Hereunto it is rightly answered, that this prophecy is to be taken partly literally, and so it was fulfilled at the return of the captives out of Babylon. See Ezra 3:1. Partly spiritually; and so Christ will at the last day raise up every one of his elect, - that Israel indeed, - and gather them to himself; not one of them shall be missing. Lavat. in loc.
Adam Clarke's Commentary on Ezekiel 39:28
Verse 28. And have left none of then any more there.] All that chose had liberty to return; but many remained behind. This promise may therefore refer to a greater restoration, when not a Jew shall be left behind. This, the next verse intimates, will be in the Gospel dispensation.
Cambridge Bible on Ezekiel 39:28
28. Read: And they shall know … in that I caused them … and will gather … and will leave. The words: and I will gather, &c. to the end are wanting in LXX., which also points the first clause differently.
Whedon's Commentary on Ezekiel 39:28
27-29. When the new Israel shall be brought back from their captivity among the “peoples” (Ezekiel 39:25; Ezekiel 39:27), filled with the new spirit of shame for their past sins and with a joy in
